ā€˜Whatever-You-Got-Ramen’ – Ramen cooking hacks with Cameron DiazĀ 

Actress Cameron Diaz has offered up a new cooking tutorial on her Instagram for her fans – letting us know easy ramen is definitely one of her go-to dishes.Ā 

Diaz shared her recipe for what she described as ā€œWhatever-You-Got Ramenā€ – meaning anything and everything you have in your kitchen cupboards.Ā 

In the caption, Diaz said: ā€œOne of my favourite quick go-to meals where I take your classic instant ramen packet and dress it up a bit with whatever vegetables I happen to have in my fridge!ā€

In Cameron’s case, these fresh ingredients included broccoli, celery, shallots, garlic, sesame oil and more.

ā€œI’m going to show you how to cut up all those ingredients. Again, it’s all about proportions and wanting everything to cook at the same speed. And also when you take a bite you’re getting all of the flavours together,ā€ she continued.

What about flavour? She explained she has two secret cooking hacks.

ā€œInstead of using water, as instructed on the instant ramen packet, I use a stock. I love a chicken stock, you can use a vegetable stock, you can use beef stock,ā€ she told fans.Ā 

I feel like that’s part of my success in this whole thing, it’s like flavour layering, you know?

Cameron uses two flavour packets – in this case, ginger and lemongrass and garlic and pepper. She joked: ā€œI’m crazy like that.ā€

After cooking the dish, she adds a squeeze of lime juice and cilantro.Ā 

THE RECIPEĀ 

ā€œBelow is what I used in my ramen, but feel free to use whatever you have that fits your flavor profile & enjoy!

ā€œMy recipe: 2 ramen insta packs (Flavors: Lemongrass ginger & Garlic pepper), 3 cups of chicken stock, about 1/2 cup each of diced carrot, celery, shiitake mushrooms, broccoli,ā€ she explained, before adding: ā€œAbout 1 tablespoon each of diced garlic, shallot, ginger & crunchy garlic chilli sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 egg, juice from 1/2 a lime, 1 tsp of rice vinegar, roughly chopped cilantro to finish.ā€
